Everyday movements, done right, make a world of difference.

Occupational therapy isn’t just rehab - it’s a roadmap to thriving in your daily rhythm. 💡👐

Occupational therapy isn't just about recovery, but about reclaiming your independence, your hobbies and your life.

Let's help you get there, one purposeful step at a time. 🌿

After a bunionectomy, stability is everything.

Post-operative splints help maintain proper alignment, reduce swelling and protect healing tissues - giving you the foundation to walk toward recovery with confidence.

Proof that small tools can create big impact.🦶✨

We used the best - Orficast by Orfit Industries

A: Scars may not fully disappear, but therapy can make a huge difference in how they feel and look:

✅ Softer
✅ Flatter
✅ Less painful or tight
✅ Easier movement

Don’t underestimate the power of scar therapy✨

"Wait... isn’t OT the same as physio?”

Not quite! Both help with recovery, but focus differently.

After an injury or surgery, scars can feel tight, painful, or overly sensitive.
That’s totally normal - but desensitization can help!

✨Try this:
• Gently rub different textures (cotton, towel, sponge) over the scar
• Tap or massage the area with your fingers
• Use vibration or gentle pressure tools if tolerated

👋 As an OT who works with hand injuries, I’ve seen this simple step make a big difference in recovery.

We use safe and proven techniques to guide this process. 💕

Purple power, high five! 💜✋

When your splint is as cool as you are 💪

This kiddo rocked a custom-made, royal purple splint - designed for comfort, function and a little flair. 👑

Made with the best: Orfit Industries (because top-tier recovery deserves top-tier materials).

Healing hands, bold colors and big smiles - that’s how we do it around here!

When you’re 2 years old, in the hospital and your mom’s an OT… you don’t just get a drip, you get a custom Orfit Industries splint - like a tiny superhero arm brace. 💪❤️

He may be little, but he’s fighting big and Mama’s bringing the tools (and the love).

🌿 Saying goodbye (with a full heart)

Today we say goodbye to someone incredibly special - not just a brilliant occupational therapist, but a beautiful soul who has brought so much care, light and compassion to our space.

Jana, you’re heading off to Riversdal to begin a brand new chapter - with your husband and soon… a baby boy! 💙

While we’ll miss you dearly - your laughter, your insight, your steady presence - we’re also so excited for what’s ahead for you.

Thank you for everything you’ve poured into your work and into the hearts of the families we support.
